The PlayStation Showcase gave fans of the iconic console manufacturers an insight into the future of their games library. Following the release of the PS5 last year, fans have yearned for new games to play on this console. However, other than a couple of new titles, players mostly had to suffice with old PS4 games using backwards compatibility.
But, it looks like things will change soon. The event revealed several new titles set to arrive soon, such as God of War Ragnarok and Insomniac’s Spider-Man 2 and Wolverine from the Marvel world. However, fans might be in for more surprises soon as the company may have teased some things in a promo video which aired at the start.
